Cornered!

A serial killer with a morbid voyeur fetish is targeting and terrorizing convenience stores. He tortures and murders his victims in creative ways in front of closed-circuit television cameras, then steals the surveillance tapes as personal trophies. With the reward upped to $500,000, the serial killer is the hot topic at a downtown Los Angeles liquor store owned by Steve (Eduardo Antonio Garcia — No Country for Old Men). When the beer deliveryman, Morty (Steve Guttenberg — Police Academy, Three Men and a Baby), shares his concerns about the recent killings, Steve and his motley friends fantasize about their big plans on what to do with the killer and the reward money. Convinced the store is safe, Steve and his buddies, Jimmy (James Duval), Jess (Elizabeth Nicole), Donny (Peter Story) and Mona (Ellia English), lock themselves in and settle down for their poker game. As the night progresses, drunken fun quickly turns into heinous murder as players begin to disappear. Their only hope for outside help is eliminated when the resident bum, Jacko (David Jean Thomas), is gruesomely killed. Is there a way to stop the killer before he finds the basement filled with butcher’s tools and puts them to his demonic use? A suspenseful “who-done-it” with a refreshing spin on the classic horror film, “Cornered!” will have you squirming. Be warned and watch what you say. Someone may be listening!
